@GeorgeGarside thanks and thanks. For the latter, are you thinking of .sucatalog.gz files?

@GeorgeGarside don't take time out to look, unless you have nothing better to do. (The issue that drove me to ask the question may have been transient.)

@GrahamPerrin I was referring to the list of Software Updates that are available to download in the service preferences in Server.app. Unfortunately it seems that the service uses the 'proper' names rather than the shortened names given by the CLI.

@GeorgeGarside thanks

@bmike and @GeorgeGarside thanks to Google here's a rare example of a space in an item name: macovod.net/2012/10/…

@GrahamPerrin Interesting, can't find that update in my scrollback—guess I missed an update and did it in a combo or something

@GeorgeGarside I assume that supplement – for 10.8.2 – became redundant when the delta and combo for 10.8.3 were released.

Can't find supplemental 2 either; must have bypassed them with 10.8.3

(Unless it really was only for 2012 systems—system requirements doesn't mention that though)

Wonder whether supplemental 1 was very swiftly followed by supplemental 2 to work around update failures for #1 e.g. discussions.apple.com/thread/4419854

… nope, not very swiftly. OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 Supplemental Update 2.0 was released around six weeks later.
